[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v2 3/7] softfloat: enforce softfloat if the host's F


From: Alex Bennée
Subject: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH v2 3/7] softfloat: enforce softfloat if the host's FMA is broken
Date: Wed, 16 Jan 2019 20:23:45 +0000

From: "Emilio G. Cota" <address@hidden>

The added branch to the FMA ops is marked as unlikely and therefore
its impact on performance (measured with fp-bench) is within noise range
when measured on an Intel(R) Xeon(R) Gold 6142 CPU @ 2.60GHz.
